“Meet the Patels,” April 30, 2016 (2014), documentary, DVD. Roy Perlstein is 30, single, and a comic actor struggling to break into the big time. He lives with his sister, Gail, a filmmaker, since breaking up with his non-Jewish girlfriend after two years because, …, well, she just wasn’t Jewish, and he couldn’t handle it. His successful, well-to-do and utterly intrusive parents are busting his chops because they want him to marry a nice Jewish girl and give them grandchildren. This is his story. Except, of course, it isn’t. It’s Ravi Patel and his sister Geeta’s story, as she follows him in his search for the right Patel in America. And she’s got to be a Patel. Don’t worry There are lots of them from Gugarat, India, and they run stores and hotels galore in the States. Using the Patel version of J-Date, he goes on dozens of ill-fated blind dates, attends others’ weddings, and even hits a meet-and-match Patel conference. And yes, they exist. And he has to decide who he is, what he wants, and if he can balance the complex identity he’s constructed of himself as a good Indian boy and an on-his-way American guy. It’s funny, genuine, and it is, as the opening sentence suggests (and I, of course, married a non-Jewish woman who later converted) an absolutely typical American experience where no one gets blown up. It’s well worth watching.
